“A major global hub for travel, London is a crucial market for
Sheraton, Marriott International’s most global brand, to have a
premium flagship property in,” said Brian McGuinness, Senior Vice
President and Global Brand Leader for Sheraton Hotels and Resorts.
“The Sheraton Grand Park Lane London and its extravagant renovation
will certainly create a halo effect for the brand and serve as a
great example of our transformation efforts.”
From its heyday as the hangout of choice for socialites,
celebrities and the aristocracy, the Sheraton Grand London Park
Lane has a long history of bringing people together in the heart of
Mayfair. Building on the hotel’s Art Deco heritage and social sway,
the new interior is designed to provide a series of well-connected
spaces where business and pleasure seamlessly combine. The 303
guestrooms have been completely redesigned in order to create an
elegant, luxury hotel experience, capturing the spirit of the Art
Deco era. New to the hotel, 43 Sheraton Club Rooms and suites offer
exclusive access to the Sheraton® Club Lounge, a private space
where guests can enjoy complimentary breakfast, drinks and snacks
during the day, a taster of The Palm Court afternoon tea, a full
bar and evening canapés. For business travellers, the Club Rooms
also include complimentary use of a private meeting room within the
Sheraton® Club Lounge, which can seat up to eight people.
The hotel’s 21 suites have been reconfigured to make best use of
the internal space and take full advantage of leafy views over
Green Park. Many now have the option of opening up into adjoining
suites to accommodate large family groups. The hotel’s Grand Suite
is a statement in luxury, comprised of an entrance lobby, master
bedroom and bathroom, as well as living and dining areas. Rooms are
interconnected with double-width, sliding pocket doors enabling the
entire suite to be opened into a single space.
“The transformation of the Sheraton Grand London Park Lane marks
a milestone for the Sheraton brand in the United Kingdom” said Even
Frydenberg, Chief Operations and Franchise Support Officer Europe,
Marriott International. “Thanks to a successful collaboration with
Sir Richard Sutton Limited, this newly renovated hotel is a shining
representation of the brand’s Grand tier and a strategically
important asset in our Sheraton portfolio.”
The renovation has also created contemporary meeting places for
local and global travellers alike. In the hotel’s famous Palm Court
Lounge, sleek furniture and a magnificent stained glass ceiling
provide the perfect backdrop to a vibrant atmosphere and lively
social scene. In-keeping with the tradition of the grand hotel
lounges of the 1920s and 30s, breakfast, Afternoon Tea, dinner and
cocktails will all be served, with imaginative menu additions
through Paired, the Sheraton brand’s reinvigorated food and
beverage programme, which offers small plates and eclectic bar
snacks served alongside suggested premium wines and local craft
beers.
The authentic Italian restaurant, Mercante, offers fresh and
seasonal dining for hotel guests and visitors alike. A speedy
Business Lunch menu caters for those mid-week meetings, while the
Italian style Prosecco Brunch gives a unique spin on the
established foodie trend. As a more traditional offering, the 1920s
themed bar Smith & Whistle serves cocktails and craft beers
alongside British-inspired sharing plates. Outdoor dining is also
available in both Mercante and Smith & Whistle.
“As hoteliers, we are delighted to have partnered with Sheraton
Hotels & Resorts in this 2 year project to restore this
Piccadilly icon,” said Christopher Lacey, Managing Director, Sir
Richard Sutton Limited.
